A study of FAST HUGS care for ICU patients with low oxygen
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a special care bundle called 'FAST HUGS' to see if it helps people in the ICU with low oxygen levels get better sooner. It focuses on patients in the Chest Intensive Care Unit who have trouble getting enough oxygen.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are being treated in the Chest Intensive Care Unit.
- You have hypoxic respiratory failure (low oxygen levels in your blood).

This study tests whether giving a little more oxygen to ICU patients on breathing machines leads to better recovery. It compares usual oxygen levels to a more liberal target to see which is safer and more effective.
This trial tests if non-invasive breathing support (a mask that helps you breathe) can improve lung healing in people with broken ribs from chest trauma who need extra oxygen. It aims to see if this treatment helps avoid the need for a breathing tube and speeds up recovery.
This study tests whether a high-flow oxygen device works better than the usual (standard) oxygen for people admitted to the hospital with low blood oxygen. The goal is to see if high-flow oxygen can help you breathe easier and improve oxygen levels faster.
This study tests a new breath analysis method to quickly diagnose respiratory infections in ICU patients on breathing machines. If successful, it could lead to faster treatment for serious lung conditions.
This trial studies whether a quick bedside ultrasound exam (done in the emergency department) adds useful information when people arrive with sudden breathing difficulty. It may help clinicians choose the right next steps faster and safer.
This trial looks at how a test might help evaluate adults who come to the emergency room with a brand-new, sudden breathing problem that needs high-flow oxygen. It may help doctors identify what’s going on faster and guide care in the early hours.
